Due to its natural roots and absence of side effects, herbal medicine has increased in popularity tremendously in recent years, garnering acceptance in both developing and developed nations. A thorough research was conducted to assemble information on medicinal plants used to treat diabetes mellitus. It is an endocrine metabolic disorder that affects roughly 10% of the world’s population, with the number of persons affected increasing every day. Plant scientific and family names, plant parts and study models employed, hypoglycemic behavior, and active chemical compounds are all included in the profiles. The large number of plants cited in this study demonstrated the importance of herbal plants in diabetes treatment. The properties of these plants may assist to prevent diabetes complications and rectify metabolic abnormalities. Researchers should do further research into the potential use of medicinal plants with anti-diabetic effects, as a result of this study
